North Carolina

Post-Civil War North Carolina, as a part of the “New South”, was supposed to be an economically and morally prosperous state that was no longer reliant on slave labor. Unfortunately, the abolition of slavery did not abolish the misfortune of black and white North Carolinians alike before 1900.

of Coal Ash Spills in North Carolina. What is coal ash, and how does it relate to North Carolina? Coal ash is a mixture of chemicals and metals that are a threat to the environment and the well- being of others. The dangers of coal ash increase as the ponds they are stored in are being located near power plants sitting beside our water sources. Sadly, we Americans use coal for a significant number of things. This may include electricity, steel, cement, etc. North Carolina has 30 additional sites

American Indians had been living in North Carolina for at least 9,500 years before European explorers first encountered them in the 1520's. For the past several decades an increasing number of Americans have been identifying as American Indians. For centuries before European contact, these native people lived in harmony with the natural environment, taking no more from the land than they needed to survive. Of all the states in the Union, North Carolina has witnessed the largest increase in Native

this statistic. After I graduate from Wayne Early Middle College High School with my high school diploma and my two-year Associate in Science degree, I hope to transfer to the University of North Carolina at Wilmington. According to newly released facts by the Business Journal, the University of North Carolina at Wilmington was ranked as one of the top 50 business schools in the nation.

educational equality made public schools in North Carolina and other states in the south a major area of conflict.

There were many court cases in which organizations such as the National Association for the Advancement of

Rocky Mount, North Carolina acts as an inhabitant of two of North Carolina’s 100 counties, Nash and Edgecombe. The various drugs available to the citizens of this city range from illegal prescription pills to harder, synthetic drugs such as Heroin. Though each drug relates to one another regardless of legal status, there are also levels of legality, relating to penalties as well.

author of the book, The Civil War in Coastal North Carolina. Published in late 2002, this book is a more recent source for millennials to use to learn about the Civil War. The Civil War branched from 1861-1865 on American soil. North Carolinians were pitted against other North Carolinians during a large portion of the war time. The coast was an important aspect for the war as it was a large harbor for trade and arsenals. The Civil War in Coastal North Carolina portrays the immense events that took place

David Cunningham writes in “Klansville, U.S.A.,” “the Carolina Klan established a demanding schedule of nightly rallies across the state, where they enlisted thousands of dues-paying members.” More than that, “at its mid-1960s peak the Klan’s presence in North Carolina eclipsed klan membership in all other southern states combined.” (Cunningham most likely put “klan” in lowercase because of the groups’ disorganization.) North Carolina should have been the state where the KKK thrived most

I never thought a white woman from North Carolina could make a change. Back then, everywhere I went I can feel the town's eyes follow. You don't grow up thinking that your beliefs could/would change. Hell, you grow up thinking much of nothing down here. In North Carolina, the only thing you have time for is making money. So you can buy more time. Every morning since before I could remember, I get up and head to the mill. My machine was the loom in the weaver room. I worked, clocked in and out, said
